七七 | 2023全国I&II卷语法填空
1️⃣全国II卷
Whenever I tell people that I teach English at the Berlin Zoo，I almost always get a questioning look. Behindit，the person is trying to figure out who exactly I teach...the animals？
- figure：数字
- figure out：解决问题
Since June 2017，right before the 1 arrival（arrive）of the two new pandas，Meng Meng and Jiao Qing，I have beenhelping the panda keepers at the zoo to feel more comfortable and 2 confident（confidence） speaking English. And who do they speak English 3 with?
- 介词with“和…一起”，表示与某个对象进行“交谈或对话”，突显双方的“互动和交流”，更能体现学习语言，以便交流的意义，用with更合理
- 介词to侧重“方向性”，表示“向”某个对象传达信息或表达意见
Not the pandas, even though 4 the language used for the medical training instructions is actually English. They talk to the flood of international tourists and to 5 visiting（visit）Chinese zookeepers who often come to check on the pandas，which are on loan from China. They also need to be ready to give 6 interviews（interview）in English with international journalists. This is 7 why they need an English trainer.
- the flood of：蜂拥而至的
So，what are they learning？8 Basically（basic），how to describe a panda 's life. It's been an honor to watch the panda programme develop 9 and to see the pandas settle into their new home. As a little girl，I 10 wished（wish）to be a zookeeper when I grew up. Now，I'm living out that dream indirectly by helping the panda keepers do their job in English.
2️⃣全国I卷
Xiao long bao（soup dumplings），those amazing constructions of delicate dumpling wrappers，encasing hot，1 tasty（taste）soup and sweet，fresh meat，are far and away my favorite Chinese street food. The dumplings arrive steaming and dangerously hot. To eat one，you have to decide whether 2 to bite（bite）a small hole in it first，releasing the stream and risking a spill（溢出），3 or to put the whole dumpling in your mouth，letting the hot soup explode on your tongue.
Shanghai may be the 4 recongized（recognize）home of the soup dumplings but food historians will actually point you to the neighboring canal town of Nanxiang as Xiao long bao' s birthplace. There you will find them prepared differently-more dumpling and less soup，and the wrappers are pressed 5 by hand rather than rolled. Nanxiang aside，the best Xiao long bao have a fine skin，allowing them 6 to be lifted（lift）out of the steamer basket without allowing them tearing or spilling any of 7 their（they）contents. The meat should be fresh with 8 a touch of sweetness and the soup hot，clear and delicious.
- allow doing sth.
- allow sb. to do
- tear：撕裂
No matter where I buy them，one steamer is 9 rarely（rare）enough，yet two seems greedy，so I am always left 10 wanting（want）more next time.
